Noem Plots Reality Show Where Migrants Fight for Citizenship

A Homeland Security official told the Daily Beast that the show is in the early stages of vetting, though approval has not been given—or denied.

Sounds like a slow roll to the Hunger Games, and she wants to be Head Gamemaker.

. . . Does she know what happens to Head Gamemakers?

 

[Pocket]

Not gonna lie, when I read the headline I was totally ready to believe the "fight" part was meant literally. It's not, but I'm still unclear on whether this is envisioned as a contest that can only have one winner.

Running Man. It's Running Man and we all know how that ended up.

Seriously, everyone involved in this pitch, in this idea, in the same building it was conceived needs to be shot out of their job using a cannon. What the actual hug?

And that this concept has come far enough to be out in the media like this means that there is significant legwork behind it already. Shame truly is dead.

Curious to know what happens to the losers? Do they get dragged off by an ICE team and sent to a concentration camp in another country?

Trump already said he'd sell the fast track to rich people.

He was serious about that alligator moat, wasn't he?

'Dilbert' creator Scott Adams says he's dying from same kind of cancer that Joe Biden has

"Dilbert" creator Scott Adams has shared that he is suffering from prostate cancer like former President Joe Biden and does not have long to live.

I mean: I'll never celebrate someone dying to horrible disease.

That said though: "And nothing of value was lost".

Back in the 90s I really enjoyed Dilbert. It really bothers me that Scott went nuts. And I am sorry he's dying of cancer. I wish he'd come back to his senses before he goes.

I'm skeptical. Biden announces that he has stage 4 prostate cancer metastasized to the surrounding bone, and the next day Adams announces that he has the exact same thing? Quel coincidence, n'est-ce pas?

 

[wonko the sane?]

I mean... we could just wait and see. If he dies: well, it's a coincidence after all. If he doesn't: no one will care anyway because it's scott adams.

It is not a staggering coincidence that another celebrity would have it. If Scott Adams was regularly announcing he had what someone else had, that'd be weird, but he doesn't. Two years ago he announced he had racism and his career died of it and now he is announcing he has aggressive prostate cancer and I expect the rest of him will die of it.

The whole thing is sad. I wish he didn't have racism, but since he did I wish he had kept it a secret. I wish he didn't have cancer and no one else did either. He is older than I really thought about him being, but I wish he could live 20 more years and experience some new things and maybe figure out some things that he hasn't yet.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

What a shame. He had a good run doing something he was very good at, and some of his work is still brilliant, but he remained lonely, bitter, and ultimately toxic, and now he's going out like this. It would have been nice if he got better, in every respect.

 

[Rhinox]

I do wonder just how much of his mental breakdown was because he was alone. Lost in his own bubble.
